Breaking the £1bn mark: Premier League January 2016 transfers in full

Welcome to RT's guide to the Premier League's January 2016 transfer window, with all the comings and goings plus deadline day drama. English clubs’ January spending saw them break the £1 billion (US$1.43 billion) mark for transfers in the 2015/2016 season.

Heading into the final day of the transfer window, the biggest surprise had been the lack of activity for both Manchester clubs. But while the red half of Manchester is playing a holding game, Manchester City chose to be bold and decisive by announcing they had signed Pep Guardiola as manager for next season.

City will automatically be favorites for the league title next season, while the right transfers this summer could put them in serious contention for the Champions League as well.

As a result of tying up Guardiola’s deal as manager, City were quiet in the transfer window this January, but there was plenty of action elsewhere in the Premier League.

Here is a look at the 'Ins' and 'Outs' for all 20 Premier League clubs for this transfer window:

AFC Bournemouth

The Premier League new boys have made some interesting additions to their squad, with ex-Arsenal man Benik Afobe arguably the pick of the bunch. The 22-year-old scored 23 goals in 48 games for Wolves over the last two seasons, and already has two from his opening three games up top for the Cherries.

Benik Afobe (Wolves) $15m

Lewis Grabban (Norwich City) $10.5m

Marius Adamonis (FK Atlantas) Loan

Rhoys Wiggins (Sheffield Wednesday) $300,000

Out

Yann Kermorgant (Reading) Undisclosed

Baily Cargill (Coventry) Loan

Arsenal

Just the one addition for title hopefuls Arsenal, with Arsene Wenger bringing in Egyptian defensive midfielder Mohamed Elneny to strengthen his side in the middle of the park. French defender Mathieu Debuchy and striker Yaya Sanogo have left the Emirates on loan for the rest of the season.

A bit of a flush out for the Premier League strugglers with former Arsenal defender Philippe Senderos leaving the club along with the likes of Jose Angel Crespo, Ilori and Joe Cole.

Out

Callum Robinson (Preston North End) Loan

Jed Steer (Huddersfield Town) Loan

Joe Cole (Coventry City) Free

Joe Bennett (Sheffield Wednesday) Loan

Tiago Ilori (Liverpool) recalled from loan

Philippe Senderos Released

Chelsea

The large majority of Chelsea fans will be enormously excited by the prospect of striker Alexandre Pato, who has arrived at Stamford Bridge from Corinthians on a six-month loan. The Brazilian remains a risk however, with the 26-year-old blighted by injury over the past few years. Ramires' departure for $30 million was the biggest January deal involving a Premier League club.

It’s a return to the Premier League for Togolese hitman Emmanuel Adebayor, with Alan Pardew taking a chance on the former Tottenham man. The striker has been without a club since leaving White Hart Lane in September of last year but has real experience at the very highest level.

Everton

The Toffees have brought in Senegalese striker Oumar Niasse from Russian club Lokomotiv Moscow for $20 million, the second most expensive player bought by a Premier League club this January. The 25-year-old scored 13 goals last season for Lokomotiv, and will surely be backup to Romelu Lukaku up top for his new club.

The Premier League leaders have brought in three and sent out four. Flying winger Demarai Gray already seems a bargain at $5.5 million, while utility man Daniel Amartey will be a useful option for Claudio Ranieri, with the Ghanaian international able to play both in defense and midfield.

The Reds' injury woes have prompted Jurgen Klopp to bring in reinforcements at the back. Both Tiago Ilori and Kevin Stewart have been recalled from their respective loans to provide Liverpool with more strength in depth, with Steven Caulker also arriving on loan from Championship side QPR.

Very little in the way of movement at City with Manuel Pellegrini opting to keep faith in his already tremendous squad in what will be the Chilean's last transfer window as manager, with Pep Guardiola now confirmed to be taking the reins at the end of the season.

Shay Facey (Rotherham United) Loan

Ian Lawlor (Bury) Loan

Manchester Utd

Like their neighbors City, Manchester United had a pretty quiet January. Young attacker Januzaj has returned to Old Trafford after having his loan canceled.

It was a busy month of spending for the Canaries with eight new additions arriving at Carrow Road. Steven Naismith was an immediate hit, scoring on his first appearance for the club in the dramatic 5-4 loss to Liverpool, with Ivo Pinto and Timm Klose coming in to bulk up the defense.

Southampton

The signing of Charlie Austin for $6 million already looks to be the bargain of the transfer window, with the England man coming off the bench to score the winner for his new side against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Just the one bit of business for Mark Hughes, but it just happens to be the biggest in the history of the club. Stoke smashed their transfer record with the signing of Giannelli Imbula, a swashbuckling central midfielder, for $27.5 million.

Sam Allardyce has brought in Bayern Munich defender Jan Kirchhoff to bolster his struggling defense while former Hull striker Dame N'Doye will be looking to impress on loan from Turkish side Trabzonspor.

Swansea City

With Bafetimbi Gomis' goals drying up, new boss Francesco Guidolin has brought in Italian striker Alberto Paloschi to help his side's struggling attack. The Swans are the second lowest scorers in the league this season with 22 and are still sitting precariously above the relegation zone despite a recent upturn in form.

Top four challengers Spurs sanctioned the sale of fringe player Andros Townsend for $18 million but refrained from bringing in new recruits of real note.

The signing of Spanish international Mario Suarez was a real coup for Quique Flores and his side. The 28-year-old played under Flores while at Atletico Madrid and made 179 appearances for the club, winning the 2011/12 Europa League and the 2013/14 La Liga title.

The loan signing of Nigerian striker Emmanuel Emenike is an interesting one. The 28-year-old was the top scorer at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations and remains a powerful talent despite a hit-and-miss career played out largely in Turkey and Russia.

While some Premier League bosses limited themselves to small deals and general housekeeping, there was certainly some exciting business completed. Stoke broke their transfer record, Norwich and Newcastle brought in a host of players to aid with what looks to be a relegation battle, and Chelsea have themselves a potential world beater - if they can keep him injury free.
